No Justice to give one of last concerts in Amarillo

Red Dirt favorites No Justice will give one of its final concerts Friday at Midnight Rodeo, 4400 S. Georgia St.

The band announced Sept. 13 via Facebook and Twitter that it would officially split Oct. 31 following farewell shows Oct. 25 in Stillwater, Okla., and Oct. 26 in Davis, Okla.

“The band will be taking a hiatus from touring and recording, so that each individual can pursue separate endeavors. While some will continue to play music, others will take a different avenue,” its original statement said.

Three days later, lead singer Steve Rice posted that his health issues, which found him hospitalized three times in the spring with life-threatening illnesses, contributed to his decision.

“After my medical issues, I have never quite been the same. I realized during my hospital stay that I was putting the majority of my focus towards the wrong things in life,” Rice said. “The decision to dissolve the band was mostly due to the fact that I want to be at home with my family and better our lives together. I believe that the man upstairs has chosen this path for me and therefore I will make no apologies for my decision.”

Tickets for the 9 p.m. Friday show are $10 in advance or $12 day of show.
